Meticulously maintained real US model Type-R, #269 of only 1027 produced this year, and of approx. 1400 total ever made in the classic Championship White.  Clean title, not a salvage!  Never crashed, never broken into.

What can I say, it's just time.  Though I'm the third owner, I've owned this car for over 11 years now, and I need to move on.  As you can see from the pictures, it's been in active competition in SCCA Solo racing (aka autocross), where it has a long winning history, with three National Tour wins, a Divisional series win, and more.  The car comes with Simpson five-point harnesses for the driver and front passenger (they clip out and fold beneath the seats so you don't have to use them on the street), a Valentine One radar locator with custom hard mount, hard-wired power, and remote display mounted under speedo, a custom fit Block-It Evolution car cover (essential for SECURITY, not just paint protection), plus factory service manual and many spare parts.  Extra rims and tires, for both competition and street, are available as well (though not included in the bid price).

Deep maintenance history with all receipts for the last ten-plus years included -- a stack almost two inches thick -- and a one-page quick-reference summary!  Front brake pads and rotors, and all front suspension bushings replaced in the last year.  Clutch and catalytic converter replaced, and shocks rebuilt and revalved in the last two years.  Motor has only 55k miles on it, and was rebuilt by Bill Brown at AEBS specifically to SCCA Solo stock rules, with all factory parts.  Motor was rebuilt in the original block, and is numbers-matching. This is as hot an engine as you're going to get SCCA stock legal!  Shocks are Koni yellows, revalved by ProParts specifically for SCCA stock class Solo racing.  Other than that, this car is bone stock and unmolested.

Comes ready to go with all the consumables race quality -- oil pan is full of Royal Purple 5W30 full synthetic, transmission is full of Redline MTL, brake fluid resevoir full of Motul RBF600, and Hawk HPS brake pads ready at all four corners.  The street tires the car comes with are Dunlop Direzza DZ-101s with about 2000 miles on them and >80% tread remaining.  Competition tires are also available separately.

These cars are rare enough in any condition to begin with, but you just won't find another this clean, original, and well maintained anywhere.  Treasure it as your unicorn, or continue its racing history and take over D-Stock in SCCA Solo competition with it!

In person inspection and test drive is available by appointment in the vicinity of Vista, CA 92084.  Please contact me to arrange.

Summary page of full maintenance history, containing date and mileage of all items, can also be sent to interested bidders through eBay's message system.  Please contact me if you'd like to receive that.

For those of you who saw this car listed earlier and are wondering what happened, the buyer backed out at the last minute.  The day before he was supposed to sign the loan paperwork, he found out his wife is pregnant, decided he couldn't afford both a kid and his dream car, and canceled the whole deal.  The auction ended at $12,500.  I'll take the first offer that matches that price.

Acura TLX caught naked in production guise, can you spot the differences?

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Acura doesn't tend to do concept cars these days that don't foreshadow a specific upcoming production model. The ZDX prototype of 2010 previewed the production version, as did the ILX and RLX showcars of 2012 and the MDX of 2013. The NSX concept is on its way to production, as the SUV-X concept is likely to do as well in the coming years. So when Acura revealed the TLX prototype at the Detroit Auto Show a few months ago, we all but knew it would only be a matter of time before that, too, would be produced. And here it is.
Spied all but completely undisguised while undergoing testing, this pair of TLX prototypes (one in white, one in black) looks almost identical to the show car. You might spot a few minor tweaks here and there - the strip of LEDs in the lower front bumper have been replaced by round fog lamps and some of the chrome accents are missing - but by and large, we're looking at the same vehicle we saw in Detroit earlier this year.
The finished production version of the TLX is expected to debut at the New York Auto Show next month, after which it will replace both the TSX and the TL, slotting in between the smaller ILX and the larger RLX in Acura's sedan lineup.

eBay Find of the Day: Ayrton Senna's 1993 Honda NSX

Fri, 09 Aug 2013

It's not often that things owned by the late Ayrton Senna come up for sale, but the seller of this black-on-black 1993 Honda NSX (aka, Acura NSX) eBay find claims it was once owned by the Formula One legend, and that he left a footprint on the factory carpet that can still be seen today. (Footprint, or vacuum lines?...)
NSX no. T000999 was given to Senna as a gift from his mentor and sponsor, Antonio de Almeida Braga, the seller claims, and it was stored at a palace near the Estoril F1 circuit in Portugal. He also was known to drive two other NSXs, a black one and a red one - the latter in which he was seen often.
The seller claims to have owned T000999, which is still in Portugal, for 17 years, and the 31,000-mile odometer indicates it was driven about 1,500 miles per year on average. Thankfully the car has been kept stock, so whoever buys it can enjoy driving it just as Senna did - that is, if the car actually is what it's claimed to be. If the story checks out, then this is one valuable NSX, which is reflected in the high minimum starting bid of 47,500 pounds ($73,620). There have been no bids at time of writing, but with nine days left in the auction, we'll be keeping our eyes on this one.
